Alderaan's Not Far Away

I love Star Wars, X-Files, Friends, Harry Potter, super heroes, Disney, and many other fangirl related topics. I love movie series and my husband.

Inspired by a convo I’m having on Discord…

Raise your hand (or reblog or something like that) if you actually enjoyed the Kenobi show (or at least if the stuff you like about it outweighs the stuff you don’t, or even if you don’t love it but think it’s overhated)

As someone in the notes said, “imperfect but I loved it”. It had its issues but I very much enjoyed it nonetheless, especially for:

- Baby!Leia Organa and her relationship with Bail and Breha (with bonus Alderaan NOT as a pile of space dust)

- Little hints at Leia’s Force-sensitivity

- Bail shaking Obi-Wan out of his Sadness Cave (bro you live like this????)

- Padmé being remembered in her own right (and shades of her in Leia)

- Sassy!Leia Organa and her shaking Obi-Wan out of his funk

- Reva and her backstory AND her making a different choice in the end

- The Path, I would watch a whole thing just on that

- Obi-Wan getting some of his mojo back thanks to his devotion to Leia (and Luke)

- Bail would have come to Tatooine to help Luke (and Owen and Beru) even if his baby girl was dead!!!

- Owen and especially Beru kicking ass and caring for Baby!Luke (even if some of Owen’s caring is ‘stay away’)

Do I think the whole thing was canon? Nah. Did we need another Vader/Obi-Wan fight prior to Star Wars original recipe? Nah. But it was an entertaining watch.

with ao3 down i hope this reminds us of what a fanfic-less existence looks like. don’t take it for granted! because it sucks not to have it.

fanfic would not exist without the hours of free labour from fanfic writers and volunteer staff. donate to otw if you have the means. taking a second to give kudos is nothing compared to months of work for writers. a comment will probably make their whole day! sharing and reblogging spreads their work. it’s so discouraging when you give your heart to something, only to receive nothing in return.

support fandom creators and staff. they are the heartbeat of everything we enjoy.

I’m pretty busy right now, but I had to take some time to paint today. So I did this aquarelle piece of Leia/Carrie and Han/Harrison. Hope you’re all having a great Valentine’s Day!

Han comes to Leia’s office with an idea. One that Leia knows better than to entertain. Or does she?

Turns out, Han Solo has very good ideas.

A third encounter following the events of See if you can work me the way you say and Another time; a little bit canon divergent for pre-ESB smut.

Here's a website where Palestine GoFundMes are vetted and shared that you can send out to people. The url is gazafunds.com

Easy to use and simple. Just share the site whenever someone asks for GFMs for Palestine.

You know what?

I love you, fics that take months to update. I click on the newest chapter and have no memory of this place and get to go back some chapters and rediscover how much i love everything about this story.

I love you, fics that take years to update. I think of you fondly, and know your names, go search for you and see an update from this year and scream, diving in uncaring of any missed details (i will finish the update and read you in reverse because this is a treat you have bestowed)

I love you, fics that probably will never update again. Thank you for being a roman empire for my mind, thank you for teaching me about the ephemeral fandom experience, for inspiring a thousand million what if-s, for being a comfort read and a nostalgia read and a reread.

I love you fic writers, who jump into projects and stories with enthusiasm. I love you when you succeed in pumping out those chapters and that love doesn't go away when you stop.

I love you fic writers who post and then get in your own head and never feel confident enough to update, whether it's at all or whether it's just that one story.

I love you fic writers, who have a fandom or media hurt you to the point of abandoning or having a hard time with their WIPs.

I love you fic writers, who lose interest or have life changes or illness or bad memory. Thank you for being part of the fandom, a core part of the fandom. Thank you for the time spent in the fandom.

I love you, fic writers who try out something new and then stop. You're so valid.

I love you, WIP fics that may or may not ever get finished. Thank you for brightening my day in the way only you could have.
